Itinerary
Day 1
2-hour guided walking food tour through Mykonos Town. Moderate-paced walking on uneven cobbles with short stops to taste local specialities.
Meeting & Welcome at Manto Mavrogenous Square
Meet the guide at Manto Mavrogenous Square to start the tour with a short introduction to Mykonos Town and the tasting route.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 5–10 minutes early to orient yourself and meet the guide at the square's center.
- Wear comfortable, flat-soled shoes — cobbles and small steps are common in this area.
- Keep a small day bag for water, sunglasses, and any purchased snacks or souvenirs.
Stroll Matogianni Alley (Matogianni Street)
Wander along the narrow Matogianni shopping alley, passing boutique shops and cafes while the guide points out local food culture and points of interest.
Tips from local experts:
- Keep to single-file in narrow sections and watch for delivery bikes and pedestrians.
- If you plan to window-shop, leave time for brief stops — the guide will allow a few minutes for browsing.
- Carry any fragile purchases in a protective bag to avoid damage while walking.
Medieval Wood Oven Bakery (Agiou Efthimiou area)
Visit the historic wood-oven bakery area on Agiou Efthimiou to smell and sample freshly baked pies and pastries while learning about traditional methods.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask the guide about ingredients if you have any allergies — notify the operator in advance where possible.
- Stand to the side while others sample so everyone can move through the small space safely.
- Bring hand sanitizer for use after sampling in public/shared spaces.
Local Delicatessen — Loukoumi tasting
Sample loukoumi (Greek delight) and other small sweet bites at a local delicatessen to experience traditional island confectionery.
Tips from local experts:
- Try a small portion first if you're unsure about textures or flavors common to loukoumi.
- Store any bought sweets in a cool, shaded place — heat can affect texture.
- If you have dietary restrictions, tell the guide before tasting so alternatives can be suggested when possible.
Little Venice viewpoint
Pause at Little Venice to enjoy sea-front views and capture photos from one of Mykonos' most romantic waterfront spots.
Tips from local experts:
- For the best photos, position yourselves along the water-facing edge and be mindful of other visitors.
- Watch for slippery stones near the water edge; keep a safe distance from the sea.
- If you prefer a quieter moment, ask the guide for a short nearby bench or less crowded viewpoint.
Iconic Windmills (Kato Mili)
Walk to the windmills overlooking the town to learn about their historic role and enjoy panoramic views of Mykonos Bay.
Tips from local experts:
- There are short uneven steps near the windmills—take care and use handrails where provided.
- Wind can be strong on the hill; secure hats and loose items before ascending.
- Plan brief photo windows to keep the group moving and allow everyone time at the viewpoint.
Local Souvlaki tasting
Enjoy a freshly prepared souvlaki or gyro wrap at a local spot, sampling classic Greek street-food flavors and textures.
Tips from local experts:
- Souvlaki is best eaten shortly after preparation — be ready to stand or find a nearby bench.
- If you prefer less spice or different accompaniments, ask the server before it is prepared.
- Keep napkins or wet wipes handy — street-food can be messy and there are limited seating options.
Greek coffee & farewell at the Old Port
Conclude at a cozy spot by the Old Port with a traditional Greek coffee and a final tasting of mastiha liqueur; time to relax and ask final questions of the guide.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask the guide for a table with a view of the harbour if you prefer a scenic seating area.
- Greek coffee is served strong and hot—allow a minute to cool before sipping.
- Keep personal belongings close while seated near the water; small coastal cafes can be busy.
